Figure-1: Monthly Crude Oil Production
Unit-wise production details with reasons for shortfall are as under:
-
- Crude oil production by ONGC during May, 2018 was 1840.93 TMT which is 1.77% lower than the monthly target and 4.82% lower when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by ONGC during April-May, 2018 was 3618.26 TMT which is 1.18% lower than target for the period and lower by 4.31% than production during corresponding period of last year. Shortfall in production is largely attributable to closure of wells to facilitate activities the under project ‘Life extension of well platform’.
-
- Crude oil production by OIL during May, 2018 was 285.02 TMT which is 4.14% lower than monthly target and 1.04% lower when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by OIL during April-May, 2018 was 559.36 TMT which is 3.18% lower than target for the period and 0.42% lower than production during the corresponding period of last year. Major reason for lower production is less than planned contribution from work over wells and drilling wells.
-
- Crude oil production by Pvt/JVs during May, 2018 was 881.89 TMT which is 0.4% higher than the monthly target and 0.56% higher than May, 2017. Cumulative crude oil production by Pvt/JVs during April-May, 2018 was 1745.23 TMT which is 1.49% higher than target for the period and 2.93% higher than the production during the corresponding period of last year.
Natural Gas
- Natural gas production during May, 2018 was 2728.04 MMSCM which is 7.29% lower than the target for the month and 1.47% lower when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative natural gas production during April-May, 2018 was 5391.01 MMSCM which is 6.13% lower than target for the period but 1.67% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. Unit-wise and state-wise natural gas production is given at Annexure-II. Unit-wise natural gas production for the month of May, 2018 and cumulatively for the period April-May, 2018 vis-à-vis same period of last year has been shown in Table-2 and month-wise in Figure-2.

Figure 3: Monthly Refinery Production
-
- CPSE Refineries’ production during May, 2018 was 12792.67 TMT which is 0.89% higher than the target for the month and 2.73% higher when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative production by CPSE refineries during April-May, 2018 was 24427.92 TMT which is 1.04% higher than the target for the period and 3.42% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. Reasons for shortfall of refinery production in some CPSE refineries are as under:
- IOCL, Paradip: Throughput lower due to RCO pump high vibration issue.
- IOCL, Gujarat: Throughput lower due to HGU interruption.
- IOCL, Haldia: Throughput lower due to DHDS shutdown for catalyst change.
- HPCL, Visakh: Throughput lower due to unplanned CDU shutdown.
- NRL, Numaligarh: Throughput lower due DCU shutdown on account of increase in furnace pressure leading to VR ullage constraint and thereby lesser crude throughput.
- MRPL, Mangalore: Crude cut for the month due to unprecedented heavy rain fall on 29th May, 18 resulted in submerging of drives in Oil Movement & Storage  and effluent treatment plants. Submergence of drives in OM&S has affected the crude & secondary units processing rates.
3.2 Production in JV refineries during May, 2018 was 1691.43 TMT which is 11.20% higher than the target for the month and 166.16% higher when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative production by JVs refineries during April-May, 2018 was 3192.08 TMT which is 9.77% higher than the target for the period but 58.97% higher than the production during corresponding period of last year. The major reason for high variation in production was major turnaround underway in HMEL refinery during April - June, 2017.
3.3 Production in private refineries during May, 2018 was 7757.0 TMT which is higher by 1.66% than the target for the month and 0.24% higher when compared with May, 2017. Cumulative production by private refineries during April-May, 2018 was 14473.94 TMT which is 4.13% lower than the target for the period and lower by 4.94% compared to production during corresponding period of last year.
3.4 Refinery-wise details of the capacity utilization and production of petroleum products during the month of May, 2018 and cumulatively for the period April-May, 2018 vis-à-vis April-May, 2017 are given at Annexures - IV and V respectively.
